Resumen
CONTRERAS, Alejandro et al. Percutaneous Treatment of Congenital Heart Defects in the Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome. Rev. argent. cardiol. [online]. 2013, vol.81, n.4, pp.360-362. ISSN 1850-3748.
The Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome is a genetic disorder charac-terized by distinctive facial features, anomalies in hands and feet, microcephaly and mental disability. Approximately 30% of subjects affected with this syndrome have associated congenital cardiac defects. This presentation describes two cases of Rubistein-Taybi syndrome with congenital cardiac disorder: a 25-year old patient with native juxtaductal coarctation of the aorta and an 11-month old infant, with large patent ductus arteriosus. Both patients underwent successful percutaneous intervention, with satisfactory long-term outcome.
